It seems that the Bimon tribe has joined forces with the demon tribe. I never expected these damn things to silently infiltrate the border area.
"White Bear, quick to act, leaped swiftly to the base of the city wall, closing the distance between him and the man."
In the next moment, he unleashed his full power, creating a powerful aura that soared into the sky.
The demon man felt the powerful aura of the person in front of him, showing no signs of worry. On the contrary, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, not taking White Bear seriously.
"My ally has emphasized multiple times that you are not an opponent to be underestimated; although I don't completely agree with his view, I have still prepared a big gift for you before your arrival!"
As the demon man spoke, a loud rumbling sound was heard. Violent tremors shook the earth around the mountain peaks, as if an earthquake was about to occur.
Then, the earth split open, and one by one, black iron pillars emerged from the ground. The black iron pillars floated in the air, seventy-two in total, each with vivid and terrifying demon reliefs carved on them. The sight of these brutal images exuded a terrifying aura, instilling fear in anyone who gazed upon them.
What was even more frightening was the constant cries and howls emanating from the iron pillars, accompanied by threads of magical energy spreading rapidly from them, engulfing everything in all directions.
Before White Bear could react, the seventy-two iron pillars formed a large array, completely trapping him inside. Dozens of black light beams erupted from the iron pillars, forming a dark barrier that enveloped White Bear, seemingly dividing the space around him.
Seventy-two black-robed demon figures stood on the iron pillars, each with strange magical symbols intertwining with the pillars beneath their feet, creating a sense of eerie danger.
The dark barrier formed by the black light beams attempted to trap White Bear inside. In the face of this sudden change, White Bear responded calmly, "The demon tribe is the demon tribe, using all sorts of deceitful means to deal with me."
Upon hearing this, the man sneered, "Enough, put away your tricks. In the time it takes for you to break free from our barrier, your companions will be completely wiped out by mine!"
White Bear countered, "Even if you help the rebel army, what can your demon tribe gain?"
The man replied, "What can we gain? A lot, in simple terms: after extinguishing the Bai royal family, half of the country's territory will belong to me."
"Hmph, do you really expect those people to keep their word? Will they share victory with you after the deed is done?"
"I don't mind not sharing. I can simply kill my colleagues too, being whole is better than half!"
With these words, the man gave a warning look to the Bimon king, obviously directing his statement towards him.
"Rest assured, I will keep my word," the Bimon king hastily reassured.
The reason for his unwavering trust was not due to his high moral standards but rather his fear that his own power would be completely wiped out by the other party.
"If the promise holds, that would be for the best."
With that said, the man waved his fan, signaling the commencement of their plan.
Following the shouts, the seventy-two black-robed demons began chanting rapidly. Subsequently, the entire array slowly rotated, with countless black lights bursting from the iron pillars, converging in the sky to form a dark and ancient magical gate.
Upon the gate were countless grotesque demon shadows, forming macabre hellish scenes that instilled fear directly into the soul. The eerie magical aura emanating from the gate silently eroded White Bear's body, seemingly attempting to dissolve him.
White Bear had already exhausted all his strength in an attempt to break free from the barrier. This was a qualitative change brought about by quantity.
White Bear was indeed very powerful, but not enough to reach the level of being invincible by his own strength alone. The seventy-two demons were the elite warriors under the man's command; while any one of them would be easily defeated in a one-on-one fight against White Bear, together they posed a threat to even the "Nation-Toppling" powerhouses.
With the strongest defensive force restrained, the man had the remaining troops, and White Bear trapped in the barrier.
At first glance, it seemed that both sides' main forces had begun to battle, but that was not the case. The man had not entered the battle yet, and his power had not yet been exerted on the battlefield.
As the war continued, the man's plan had roughly been achieved. He was aware that if he could join the battle later, kill the old woman entangled with Bimon King, and then deal with the distracted White Bear, victory would be theirs!
